Cozy means tiny cramped space. Too expensive for what you get. Yes the view is nice and the hot tub is there but overall not what we were hoping for.

Cozy little getaway

Such a wonderful, quiet stay. Rather close to the main house but it was so private at the same time. Wonderful host. Beautiful views. And the hot tub was great! Can't wait to stay again. Perfect for a couple!

Romantic getaway!

Absolutely loved this romantic getaway tucked into the woods right off the coast. The space was so cute and cozy with an incredible view of the sound and the nicest hottub spot. The place is also filled with games for you and your partner/friend to play together. Loved it so much!!

Bday getaway

Quiet getaway for a night for my husbands bday. Grounds were clean and well maintained. I do agree with others feedback that the stairs could use some lighting for after dark, but other then that this place was a dream. Beautiful view to wake up to. The hot tub was perfects.

Nice relaxing stay

The deckhouse was cosy and pleasant. The bed was very comfortable. I appreciated the details like snacks and toiletries. I could not figure out how to use the coffee maker. I also wasn't thrilled with the view of freshly cut trees in front of the windows. Chuckanut drive was beautiful as always. Overall it was a positive experience.

A cozy getaway

Booked the cabin for the night after our wedding. Directions were helpful in finding the place, even though we didn't see the sign at first because of how late it was. Biggest issue was the lack of an exterior light by the staircase, made it a little hard to navigate at night. That being said, the rest of our stay was excellent! Quiet, cozy, and plenty of natural light!
